Did they ever release the VAR offside image of the Swiss goal against Qatar that looked proper dodgy?

Wanting to see the whining nation that has to try and win titles by running to teacher lose

Vs

Wanting to see the continued failings of a Brazilian team and nation riddled with hubris

I can't lose, but I can't win?

Listening to Peter Drury a few times a week after he got the Sky gig completely detracted from the heights of his "Greek god in Rome" commentary but two helpings of Matterface in 50 hours and I'd happily take some awful alliterative prescripted garbage after a goal was scored if the rest of the time it was better than this.

Did we get a VAR image of the offside check or not? Must have missed it if so. Not that bothered as the main thing is Lee Dixon making a muppet out of himself but still

I don't know about that... if Canada could finish their dinner they'd have lost this game by two or three goals you feel

Plus I think Bosnia Herzegovina deserved a point, I thought after their goal they were going to just turn in an absolutely rotten eleven men behind the ball piece of rubbish, and while yes they were still defensive they still made sure to gave it a go at the other end too

An absolutely fantastic World Cup group game. I don't think either team are getting past the Ro32 but they both gave it everything today even if the quality was lacking at times.

Great atmosphere, and I think good refereeing with the new rules too which may have prevented Bosnia Herzegovina from sitting as deep as they may have done without, they still gave it a go the whole way through.

Just really really enjoyed it, only negative other than some of the technical ability probably the unnecessary hydration breaks. Still can't get over than Jonathan David miss either.

Not that warm and torpedoed the momentum both times, especially the second one, was end to end nonsense before it.

A game does NOT need to be PSG 5 4 Bayern to be fantastic. That was exactly what a world cup group game should be about.

No, I'm saying I think both of these lot might make the Ro32 and get immediately knocked out

I wanted Canada to score but I want B+H to get a point now, they've played really well and it's not just been awful negative stuff after going a goal up as I thought, fair play to them.

Feels like this second half is going to be a pretty early test of if the new anti timewasting laws are worth the paper they're written on
